Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Heavy rainfall in Bhopal on Monday and Tuesday led to severe waterlogging and disruption in several parts of the city.
As the rain poured for hours, many low-lying and residential areas were submerged under water.
On Smart City Road, the situation turned unusual as the road looked like a flowing stream.
Some youngsters were seen enjoying themselves, splashing and playing in the gushing water as if it were a waterfall.
